If so, any ideas on the odds of a successfull swap between a 2000 Honda Prelude VTEC 4 speed trip trans. and a recent 'anymodel' Lamborghini 6 speed trip trans.?

Just figured I'd ask.

Rock on!

I don't know if that would be too successful. I'm no mechanic, but I have my reasons to thinking why this wouldn't work.

1. Can the Honda hold the power of Lamborghini technology?
2. Honda - Japanese, Lambo - Italian. They make cars quite differently.
3. I don't know how well it would work out going from a 4 to a 6 speed.

like I said, I'm no mechanic (yet), but I have a good knowledge of cars. Mainly German cars and Toyota, but japanese cars aren't all that different from one another. I'm just not a connoisseur of Italian cars though. Check google if you haven't already.

All that's irevlevant. Thanks for the answer though. Lambo to Honda... doesn't matter, the ECU still sees a tiptronic either way, just need to reprogram and retune (which I gotta do anyway for the twin turbo) it for 6 gears. I did some research on my own too, found it is possible to make the swap... but I think I am SOL on getting Lambo parts for my budget.

Rock on!

not sure if that would work man, I mean Lambo into a Honda is a bit like putting the Terminator machinery inside this guy:



Yeah it's an absolute monster under all that innocence(and would make for one hell of a surprise in a street race against any unsuspecting people) but I'd be much more terrified of Ahnold right off the bat XD

just messin dude

Not sure if it would work, but if you make it work, let us know. And you should play the intro to the 6 Million Dollar Man every time you start up ;)
